These Peelable Mango Gummies Have Everyone On Tiktok In A Frenzy

These Peelable Mango Gummies Have Everyone On Tiktok In A Frenzy

Review: "I've been seeing these everywhere and just HAD to try them! I mean…an excuse to play with food? I'm IN! Anyway, these are smooth and not at all sticky on the outside. [...] Tastes like artificial mango and is sweet and tangy...more sweet. The peel is more tough, like a gummy bear. It too, is sweet and tangy…with the artificial mango flavor. I hear more people say they like the center but I actually prefer the flavor of the peel. Anyway, these are so fun! Having to peel them takes time too so you're less inclined to eat so many, quickly. You should definitely give them a try though, at least once!" - Sara

They do have some exotic meats in them but they're mostly beef. It's a novelty. They are good though.

Review: "Okayyy so I got these for the “cursed” value, and went into it thinking it’d be cheesy…. but was actually really good! No cheese flavour just like a floral fruity flavour.

I have one more box left and intend to really focus on the taste so I can update this review and tell you what fruit flavour it is." - Siren Gentry

Chalk Full Of Flavor: Premium Edible Chalk

Chalk Full Of Flavor: Premium Edible Chalk

Review: "I’m deficient in iron and have pica cravings. This edible chalk has that crunch and powder texture that I was craving. It tastes just how I imagined it to, like chalk and doesn’t have any real taste, so if you are looking for something with flavor or tasty, this is not it. It came packaged nicely and in tact. Six rectangular shaped chalk pieces. Nice and white, no yellow streaks. Tried one straight out of the package and it satisfied. Crunchy with the powdery texture after biting." - Vera64

Ditch The Chips, Dive Into These Savory Dried Squid Snacks

Ditch The Chips, Dive Into These Savory Dried Squid Snacks

Review: "I love dried squid and it’s one of my favorite savory snacks. This product was much different than I was expecting, but in a good way. There is a strong dried squid smell as soon as you open the bag, and each of the pieces are long and wide unlike cheaper bags of dried squid that are stringy like floss. The squid has a good texture - it’s not super chewy and not super dry. (It’s a little bit chewy though because that’s just the texture of squid.) And it’s much healthier than chips or candy!" - Sarah
